Yes, that is a "problem", which in my mind isn't a problem at all if one
do proper testing. After all: all designs should be able to take a fair
amount of font-resizing at the user-end, without breaking apart.
I personally test to 200% (or rather to destruction), regardless of
PPI/DPI.
Screen-resolution will only get higher, and all browsers will have to
adapt to that (one way or another). So do we.
